1. Direct To Garment • Direct to garment (DTG) is a digital printing technique where designs are printed directly onto the fabric or garment using an inkjet printer with special water based inks. • Before being printed, the fabric needs to go through a pre-treatment process which involves coating it with chemicals that enable better absorption of the ink. • It is then passed through another machine that sets the ink using steam or heat, before being washed and dried to remove the chemicals. • DTG good for • Complex designs with intricate details, a broad range of colours, or realistic photos. • Designs that need to be printed right to the edge of the fabric. • DTG printing works better on lighter fabrics, composed of 100% cotton, or a cotton blend.
2. Sublimation printing • Sublimation, like DTG, is a digital printing technique that uses an inkjet printer. • But, instead of directly printing the fabric the design is printed in reverse onto paper and then transferred onto the fabric. • Sublimation good for • You can get more vibrant colours and vivid pictures than any other printing. • Sublimation works great on 100% polyester but isn't compatible with non-synthetic fabrics like cotton.
3. Screen printing • There are two main types of screen printing; flat bed and rotary. • Flat bed screen printing can be fully automated, semi-automated or manual. This method uses a squeegee to transfer the ink paste through an engraved screen. • With rotary or cylinder printing, pressure forces the paste through engraved roller screens. • For both types, each screen can only apply one colour at a time. • Screen Printing good for • Large order runs. Rotary printing gives you a more consistent finish compared to screen, and is great for print runs of 1000m or more. • It’s a great choice for simple designs with only a few colours though it's worth noting that it’s hard to achieve consistency of colour across batches of fabric. • Solid colours come out well but shading is hard to achieve. Lines on the designs need to be well defined and slight bleeding of colours is common.
4. Heat transfer • With this method, you print on paper and transfer the design to fabric by heat. • The finish is vivid and clean and is ideal for logos and labels on products like sportswear, underwear and swimwear where you don't want a fabric label. • It's most effective on polyester and is inexpensive, but slower compared to other types of printing.
5. Block Print • Block printing is the oldest printing technique with roots in India, Japan and China dating back to 5th century BC. • Wooden blocks are hand carved with designs, then covered in ink before being hand pressed onto the fabric. • The dyes for block printing are usually mixed by hand and eye to match the desired pantone – a job requiring incredible skill and experience.
